In cultured bovine adrenal chromaffin cells expressing Na(V)1.7 isoform of voltage-dependent Na(+) channels, we have previously reported that lithium chloride (LiCl) inhibits function of Na(+) channels independent of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) (Yanagita et al., 2007). Here, we further examined the effects of chronic lithium treatment on Na(+) channels. LiCl treatment (1-30 mM, > or = 12 h) increased cell surface [(3)H]saxitoxin ([(3)H]STX) binding by approximately 32% without altering the affinity of [(3)H]STX binding. This increase was prevented by cycloheximide and actinomycin D. SB216763 and SB415286 (GSK-3 inhibitors) also increased cell surface [(3)H]STX binding by approximately 31%. Simultaneous treatment with LiCl and SB216763 or SB415286 did not produce an increased effect on [(3)H]STX binding compared with either treatment alone. LiCl increased Na(+) channel alpha-subunit mRNA level by 32% at 24 h. LiCl accelerated alpha-subunit gene transcription by 35% without altering alpha-subunit mRNA stability. In LiCl-treated cells, LiCl inhibited veratridine-induced (22)Na(+) influx as in untreated cells. However, washout of LiCl after chronic treatment enhanced veratridine-induced (22)Na(+) influx, (45)Ca(2+) influx and catecholamine secretion by approximately 30%. Washout of LiCl after 24 h treatment shifted concentration-response curve of veratridine upon (22)Na(+) influx upward, without altering its EC(50) value. Ptychodiscus brevis toxin-3 allosterically enhanced veratridine-induced (22)Na(+) influx by two-fold in untreated and LiCl-treated cells. Whole-cell patch-clamp analysis indicated that I-V curve and steady-state inactivation/activation curves were comparable between untreated and LiCl-treated cells. Thus, GSK-3 inhibition by LiCl up-regulated cell surface Na(V)1.7 via acceleration of alpha-subunit gene transcription, enhancing veratridine-induced Na(+) influx, Ca(2+) influx and catecholamine secretion.
在表达电压依赖性钠通道Na(V)1.7亚型的培养牛肾上腺嗜铬细胞中,我们之前报道过氯化锂(LiCl)抑制钠通道功能且不依赖糖原合酶激酶-3(GSK-3)(柳田等人,2007年)。在此,我们进一步研究了慢性锂处理对钠通道的影响。LiCl处理(1 - 30 mM,≥12小时)使细胞表面[³H]石房蛤毒素([³H]STX)结合增加约32%,而不改变[³H]STX结合的亲和力。这种增加被放线菌酮和放线菌素D抑制。SB216763和SB415286(GSK-3抑制剂)也使细胞表面[³H]STX结合增加约31%。与单独任何一种处理相比,LiCl与SB216763或SB415286同时处理对[³H]STX结合没有产生增加的效果。LiCl在24小时时使钠通道α亚基mRNA水平增加32%。LiCl使α亚基基因转录加速35%,而不改变α亚基mRNA稳定性。在LiCl处理的细胞中,LiCl如在未处理细胞中一样抑制藜芦碱诱导的²²Na⁺内流。然而,慢性处理后洗脱LiCl增强了藜芦碱诱导的²²Na⁺内流、⁴⁵Ca²⁺内流和儿茶酚胺分泌约30%。24小时处理后洗脱LiCl使藜芦碱对²²Na⁺内流的浓度 - 反应曲线向上移动,而不改变其EC₅₀值。短裸甲藻毒素-3在未处理和LiCl处理的细胞中均使藜芦碱诱导的²²Na⁺内流变构增强两倍。全细胞膜片钳分析表明,未处理和LiCl处理的细胞之间的I - V曲线以及稳态失活/激活曲线具有可比性。因此,LiCl对GSK-3的抑制通过加速α亚基基因转录上调细胞表面Na(V)1.7,增强藜芦碱诱导的Na⁺内流、Ca²⁺内流和儿茶酚胺分泌。
